-The annual inventory form required to be completed by MSP by the state coordinator of the 1033 program

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 15 business days, as the statute requires.

I have yet to receive confirmation that my request regarding the 1033 program is moving forward. Please advise as to its status. The last update I received was Captain Salazar's (cc'd) indication that the documents had been passed to his supervisor.

I am your contact regarding this IPRA Request, I did send you a notice via US Mail that we are processing your request. We have 15 calendar days from the date request received to fulfill your request, we received your written request on Monday August 18, 2014 the due date is Tuesday September 2, 2014. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me via phone or email.Please have an excellent day :)

I would ask you to reconsider releasing a spreadsheet, as it is in the interest of transparency and faithfulness to the data that I ask for it in this format.

I am able to run the spreadsheet you've sent through a text extraction program in an attempt to reproduce the spreadsheet. But such programs are not nearly as accurate, obviously, as the native digital data itself. This data will be posted in full online, where anyone can scrutinize my figures and calculations to ensure that I do not modify or mistake the data.

Please consider this request, and let me know if you are able to release the data in spreadsheet format.
